But she wasn't expecting to see Ceaser in her living room! " Lord Ceaser?" She trembled slightly and almost lost her balance, as her face was decorated in nothing but shock! Ceaser stood up upon seeing Isabella and strolled to meet her with a devilish smile.." Mi amour," he greeted and took Isabella's right palm, before lowering his head to plant a kiss on it. Isabella quickly withdrew her hand and stood behind her husband awkwardly. She couldn't face Ceaser, so her head was hung downward. Henry sighed and pressed a hand over his face. " Don't worry. I am not here to hurt you or hurt anyone or take anyone. The reason why I am here is to support my old friend's family," Ceaser made his intention known again and took his seat again. He noticed Isabella's expression and realised she was afeared by him. Isabella was bewildered to hear this, and she looked up at her husband, who appeared conflicted at the moment. . .****** Hudson went to the states in his private pl
" Young master, welcome back." He greeted when he noticed Hudson had stepped into the living room, and his eyes traveled to Andrea instantly. The moment his eyes landed on Andrea, he frowned slightly and looked back at Hudson. " Are you done with your work?" Hudson pulled Andrea close to him instinctively like a mother hen and narrowed his eyes at Fredrick. Frederick quickly shook his head negatively and straightened himself." Am sorry young master Hudson." He lowered his head, as he apologized sincerely. Just then, Slaughter also appeared, since she heard the sound of the entrance opening, and she knew it was none other than Hudson. " Master, you are back." She said and immediately reported the earlier mission given to her. " Mission accomplished master." Andrea was stunned, and she looked back at Hudson. She wasn't surprised to see Slaughter, but she astonished, because of the respect given to Hudson. Hudson stuffed his hands into his pocket casually and gave a cu
The rest weren't aware of this, and besides, they all believed Miles was a good person, who wouldn't endanger Mia's life. Isabella in particular was relieved and knew only Miles could help her daughter. So, she trusted him. Ceaser and Henry went to the study room to discuss, since the former still insisted on staying.Though, Henry found it strange. They got to the study room and took their seats. While Ceaser lit up his cigar, inhaling and exhaling it habitually with a stoical face. Henry just ignored him and tried to deal with his company matters. Well, Ceaser was aware of Henry's turmoil, but he wasn't in the mood to talk about it yet. " Where is your son in law?" He asked out of the blue, shaking the ashes at the end of his cigar. Henry raised his head and furrowed his brows. " Who? Miles? He is with Mia currently," he answered, oblivious of who Ceaser was referring to. Ceaser laughed dryly and suddenly faced Henry, with a twitched lips. " Don't give me that He
Henry and Ceaser came out of the study room and went to the living room.This was when the door clicked open, and a familiar figure stepped in.......The instant, Ceaser dilated his eyes and stepped forward like he just saw his prey .....Hudson was dressed in an ordinary rag outfit, that only accentuated his thin figure. He walked in calmly, his eyes instantly sighting Ceaser, who had been staring at him..At this point in time, it seemed like time had stopped as both people stood still and gazed at each other with an unknown eye message. Well, Hudson already knew Ceaser was in the mansion. He only decided to face the devil and tempt him a bit. He wanted to dare the devil and kill his wrath! Ceaser's gazed at Hudson dangerously, his eyes glinting murderously! He had been dying to see Hudson again and trapped him forever! He planned to really get back at Hudson and made sure to make him beg for death in the hardest way! Seeing him again felt like a great achievement, and
After a while, Ceaser decided to take his leave. " I need to get going now." He informed Henry and took out a ticket, passing it to him. " This is a ticket to a bidding, that will take place in the state. Give it to Isabella, I am humbly inviting her." Henry looked down at the ticket, as his eyes traveled to it. " Okay." He took it and scanned it. " I will give it to her." Then afterwards, Ceaser proceeded to take his leave. The moment he was gone, Gina went to meet Henry and tried to seduce him openly. " Don't do that. You know Isabella might be looking at us now, and I don't want any trouble for you." Henry pulled Gina's hands away from him and persuaded her gently. Gina pouted, feeling displeased, and she said coquettishly. " Why are you treating me like this? Do you know it's like you are stabbing my heart." Her eyes casted down immediately. Henry pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. He placed his palms on Gina's cheek and kissed her forehead. " You know it's
Sebastian and Ceaser got back to the layer, and Sebastian went to get something from Ceaser's chamber as ordered by Ceaser. Unexpectedly, when he got there, he met Shadow standing at the entrance of the door. Then, he halted and lowered his brows. " Do you have any business here?" He asked Shadow, who turned to him when he noticed someone was behind him. Shadow shook his head negatively. " Nothing. I only want to see Lord Ceaser," he answered politely. Looking at him, one could see he had totally changed and was no longer the cold formidable Shadow. It seemed he had been turned into a docile servant. Sebastian walked forward and pushed him away." Lord Ceaser isn't here. Don't think you can lie to me. I am watching you! If you try anything funny, I will behead you!" Shadow stepped back with his head inclining downward. " No, I would never do such a thing. I can't betray Lord Ceaser. He saved my life, so he is my savior and my Lord." He said, trembling slightly. " Good.
Andrea finally lost it and gave up! She was annoyed and raised her hands up! " Huh! What do you want?! You are a lady, you should like at least one thing!" " And what if I don't?" Slaughter stopped walking and squinted her eyes, twitching her lips in irritation. " You know I never asked you to talk to me, and I don't want you to talk to me! I am weird! I am boring! Go away! The one thing I want is for you to leave me alone! Don't act so all like a spoilt brat, it's so annoying! You are a lady, a pregnant one, so act like one, and if you don't want to, then I don't see your worth here! You are only here because of your pregnancy! Just go and get rid of the zygote then! *Gasp* Immediately Andrea took in all of Slaughter's outburst, she gasped and covered her mouth, her eyes widened! Even the servants who overheard this were shocked! Andrea touched her tommy, as her eyes landed on it, and she rubbed it gently. She stepped back and lifted up her head, shaking it, as tea
Camilla also stood up furiously, " Henry, I don't think you know what you are saying! How can we make a useless mere mediocre nominal husband an acceptable member of this family?! It's simply absurd!" " What's absurd is we all treating Hudson like he is a piece of trash!" Henry snapped at them, pointing to Hudson. ." Well, he is." Isabella rolled her eyes." Isabella!" " What?!" Isabella widened her palms and hissed furiously! " Don't call me like that!" Henry stared at her for some seconds, before he took his seat again. He exhaled, " This doesn't have to result into any fight. I just want y'all to trust me. This is for the good of this family." Then, he focused back on his food, acting as if he hadn't say anything. Hudson just lowered his eyes, trying to avoid Isabella's gawking and Camilla's sharp eyes. " Fine!" Isabella still wasn't pleased! She spat and clenched her jaws, before she stormed away from the dining room. After she was gone, Camilla had no say, so she sat
